Liverpool cruised to victory over Maribor to extend their lead at the top of their Champions League group.

Mo Salah and Emre Can found the net for the Reds on a comfortable night, before Daniel Sturridge rounded off proceedings late on.

Sturridge's strike was his first in the Champions League for seven years.

It could have been more for Liverpool, but James Milner missed a spot kick.

The only sour note for the Reds was Georginio Wijnaldum's injury after just 15 minutes after rolling his right ankle.
